I heard it through the grapevine.

The specter of anti-semitism is heavily ingrained in their culture and history. It's what drives their 'us against the world' attitude, which is what drives their nepotism and is often used as internal justification for outright subversion and blatant dishonesty. Which, over time, turn fake, non-existent or rare antisemitism into real antisemitism. And the cycle continues.

Mr Aonuma seems confused. Tears of the Kingdom IS the DLC.

THEN TURN THEM AWAY, YOU ABSOLUTE MORON

I woke up today not knowing about this. From this moment forth my world is a little bit darker.

Why does every unelected communist regime quickly reintroduce the same STASI kangaroo court system?

Because fear is the only way they can hold onto power once everyone sees how destructive their policies are.

It wasn't 'diverse' in the sense they understand it, which involves shoving every single race into a single neighborhood. It was about cooperation that transcended nationality. It also had a pretty long run didn't it?

This is not just evil, it's insulting. They know their constituents have historically been easily led and had terrible memories, so they think all they need to do is gaslight some more.

That may be true, but I hope not. It's hard to forget being coerced and shamed into get injected with something, especially if that something was promised to be safe but harmed you or your loved ones. People may feel powerless to do something about it, but they're not going to forget in a hurry.

I hope.

There's gonna be thousands of videos of them acting like lunatics with their names and faces tied to them

I do agree that shouting and screaming isn't coming from a position of strength, but on the other hand I think it's high time our side were prepared to get vocally angry about all this. The whole time we've been playing defensively.

Anyway, this twitter dweeb, like most of his kin, assume their cultural dominance is going to continue, and I really don't think it will. I think and very much hope that he is mistaken about who will have difficulties getting hired in future.

If it's scary, stop doing it.

I don't think they have faith in it, but they're trying to do things 'the right way' to illustrate how corrupt it is, and to exhaust all options because they're not prepared to cross the Rubicon. And may not ever be.

I suppose so. It still doesn't quite ring true to me but it is slightly more believable that way. I still don't see Bethesda making statements but I suppose they could have been infiltrated by writers and artists who would.

It's not a biological need like oxygen, water, and food are, you won't die if you don't do it, which is why I hedged my words a bit. I would agree though for the most part. There's probably a better word to describe it than 'need', but it's close enough.

I'm with him on this one. This sounds fake.

The final boss is a tranny who is revealed to be the actual hero who is trying to protect the universe from the actual villain which is a conservative white man who insist on calling you with female or male pronouns despite no one else doing this.

I might have believed the post if not for this line. I know [Current Year] is forever getting even more [Current] but I don't think Bethesda would risk invalidating genderspecials by even having a villain ignore their pronouns. Even evil villains have to be non-threatening when it comes to bigotry.

I could see it if it was a bolder game by bolder devs, but Bethesda games are not games that make statements. They're inoffensive, increasingly dumbed down cash cows.

(I also think I would have heard about this elsewhere by now)

Call it confirmation bias if you will, but I've been reading a lot of stories like this lately. It seems that Christianity is the next major target for subversive entryism (which makes sense since it's a strong right-wing bastion, and a stable source of tradition, identity and community).

People like these are not actually pastors, they have no sincerity to bring to the role and probably don't even believe in God. It's a shallow, trendy identity for them at best but more likely it's deliberate infiltration.

That, or the propaganda has become so ubiquitous and effective that Christian leaders are falling like dominos.

It could be argued that this borders on a biological need - at least our bodies seem to think so - so of course they have chosen to vilify it.

I don't think a studio should be shitcanned over just 1 game because such a thing is a death sentence to creativity and innovation

You're coming at this from a rational perspective that considers the impact on the industry at large, and I agree with you in spirit.

But if that 1 game is squarely aimed at subverting an existing series and giving a middle finger to its fans, I absolutely think a studio should be shitcanned for it.

while our goal is to a home for all content

except that content

Then your goal isn't to be a home for all content, is it? IS IT?

Except for casinos

Disgusting.

I might just Imp-post.

I no longer trust Trump to have the balls or even the inclination to resist anything that doesn't affect him directly. I defend him insofar as every word out of their mouths about him is a complete lie, and their persecution of him is really persecution of the People, but I see Trump himself as pure narcissism and ego, nothing else.

Maybe he'll prove me wrong.

I'll consider feeling sad for him if he abandons the dishonest pretense that he's fit to serve, and retires.

This is almost certainly a token gesture so they can say 'Look, we got rid of the biased schemers, the process is 100% fair now!'

Wasn't there some bullshit about them counting ticks as a yes vote but not counting crosses as a no vote? Was that ever resolved?

It's striking that the right attempts to justify the murder of people on the right, whereas the left just does a who-whom analysis.

Yeah, trying to be fair against opponents who want you dead and will utilize every dirty trick to make it happen is a loser's game, I know.

But I value the truthfulness of our discussions here at .win, and I want to call it like I see it. When I try to put myself in the shoes of the guy with the gun I get 'Oh shit they're breaking through, I'm going to get mobbed and beaten to death and so are the people I'm protecting' because that's probably what my thought process would be if an angry group was breaking through a barricade. Maybe I'm being too generous. He is a professional after all.

I didn't mean a civilian. I meant if a cop had done it in defense not of the ruling class (or its puppets), but in defense of you and me.

That is also true.
